Will Mexico save NAFTA?

 Will Mexico Save NAFTA? Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero The viability of the Mexican economy in the 21st century lies not in romantic diversification toward transatlantic or Asian horizons, but in consolidating its identity as a fundamental pillar of the North American region. Given the complex estrangement that has characterized the relationship with the Donald Trump administration, Secretary Marcelo Ebrard's strategy of strengthening ties with Ottawa is not only a shrewd diplomatic move, but an imperative for commercial survival. Mexico and Canada now share the urgent need to rescue the continental vision that Robert Pastor proposed decades ago: an integrated North America that transcends mere geographic proximity to become a community of shared interests. This strategic alliance seeks to shield the USMCA from protectionist impulses, recognizing that both countries are the United States' most stable and complementary partners.

Artificial intelligence not only automates tasks, but is also beginning to colonize the realm of the sacred, giving rise to epiphanies and digital utopias that could supplant traditional humanist values. While the ...

Diego Martín Velázquez Caballero Mexican sovereignty, more than an exercise in self-determination, has transformed into a sophisticated theatrical set where the main action is decided in foreign offices. Observing the current reality through the analytical lens of Anabel Hernández and María Idalia Gómez, it becomes clear that the recent massive hack of national institutions was not just a technical incident, but the culmination of an operational tutelage. A true digital coup d'état, as Schweizer describes it. In this scenario, Mexico operates as a kind of American Sicily: a laboratory of containment and experimentation where US intelligence observes how far its global enemies can penetrate before the system collapses. This dynamic evokes the atmosphere of Umberto Eco's The Prague Cemetery, where the creation of conspiracies and the manipulation of falsehoods ultimately shape geopolitical reality. Peter Schweizer's thesis on the infi...
